Class 5 from Bro. Nathan Lewis’s Esther – Queen of Destiny series given at the 2009 Winfield Bible School.
Class 2 from this series was used for GCT Episode 014.
00:00:06,600 –> 00:00:09,700
The theme of this Bible school
is the following flash to the
2
00:00:09,700 –> 00:00:12,200
Triumph of the spirit are
speaking.
3
00:00:12,200 –> 00:00:18,300
Brother, this morning is Nathan
Lewis, giving his fifth class
4
00:00:19,000 –> 00:00:24,400
the banquet is title series is
Esther the queen of Destiny.
5
00:00:25,600 –> 00:00:41,400
Brother, Nathan.
Well, good morning, brothers and
6
00:00:41,400 –> 00:00:46,100
sisters.
I know that all of, you have
7
00:00:46,300 –> 00:00:53,200
risen early this morning, Eager
to see haman’s swing and was
8
00:00:53,200 –> 00:00:57,800
remark to me, as I came in this
morning that we’re that certain
9
00:00:57,800 –> 00:01:01,200
brother was Keen to get to this
point in the story.
10
00:01:01,200 –> 00:01:06,200
And he said that that Haman
didn’t really drop as far as
11
00:01:06,200 –> 00:01:09,500
Korah dathan the buyer and but
he still dropped a fair way.
12
00:01:09,500 –> 00:01:12,900
And it’s true, isn’t it?
He was going to come down from a
13
00:01:12,900 –> 00:01:17,900
massive height today and, and
really be dispensed with by God
14
00:01:17,900 –> 00:01:22,300
himself.
So now we come to I suppose we
15
00:01:22,300 –> 00:01:24,600
should really call the Crux of
the story.
16
00:01:24,600 –> 00:01:29,500
The destruction of Haman.
The banquet a second banquet of
17
00:01:29,500 –> 00:01:32,300
wine.
And you remember that, we lift
18
00:01:32,300 –> 00:01:37,900
our story with with Mordecai.
I emerging from the Kings gate
19
00:01:38,500 –> 00:01:44,200
as the perfect representation.
The perfect manifestation of the
20
00:01:44,200 –> 00:01:47,500
king himself of God, in the
heavens writing, the king’s
21
00:01:47,500 –> 00:01:53,000
horse dressed in the Kings
clothes with the king’s crown,
22
00:01:53,500 –> 00:01:56,300
looking for all the world, like
the king himself.
23
00:01:57,600 –> 00:02:02,200
Poor old Heyman had been
publicly humiliated in the worst
24
00:02:02,200 –> 00:02:06,400
possible way as he was forced to
parade Mordecai through the
25
00:02:06,408 –> 00:02:10,900
streets of shushan.
But brothers and sisters, it was
26
00:02:11,600 –> 00:02:17,500
just the beginning.
It was just the beginning, much
27
00:02:17,500 –> 00:02:20,800
much worse is Yet to Come and we
pick up the story.
28
00:02:20,800 –> 00:02:24,300
We will lift often chapter 6 and
verse 12.
29
00:02:25,700 –> 00:02:30,100
And more Decay.
I came again to the Kings gate,
30
00:02:31,100 –> 00:02:36,600
but Heyman hasted to his house
morning and having his head
31
00:02:36,700 –> 00:02:39,000
covered.
And we can just imagine
32
00:02:39,200 –> 00:02:42,300
Mordecai’s thoughts.
Can’t we brothers and sisters as
33
00:02:42,300 –> 00:02:47,000
he rode through that City?
He’d probably be thinking all
34
00:02:47,000 –> 00:02:48,200
flee.
Like our Lord.
35
00:02:48,200 –> 00:02:54,500
Jesus Christ was in Matthew 21.
When he likewise Road into
36
00:02:54,500 –> 00:02:58,400
another city, Into the city of
Jerusalem and the people would
37
00:02:58,400 –> 00:03:02,600
throw down the palm branches
before him in the city streets,
38
00:03:02,900 –> 00:03:07,700
rang with his praises.
But our Lord Jesus Christ.
39
00:03:07,700 –> 00:03:12,400
Thoughts for the sisters were
not on the Glorious ticker-tape
40
00:03:12,400 –> 00:03:16,300
parade.
But on the terrible coming,
41
00:03:16,300 –> 00:03:22,600
judgments that were going to
engulf that nation in ad. 70 and
42
00:03:22,600 –> 00:03:25,000
more Decay would have been just
the same as he was paraded
43
00:03:25,000 –> 00:03:28,400
through the city just like our
Lord, Jesus Christ in Matthew
44
00:03:28,400 –> 00:03:31,700
21, it was all very nice and
encouraging.
45
00:03:31,700 –> 00:03:37,500
But But this in destruction
still awaited all the Jews.
46
00:03:39,300 –> 00:03:43,200
And so we see that Mordecai came
again to the Kings gate.
47
00:03:43,200 –> 00:03:46,200
He was straight back into
working for his King.
48
00:03:46,200 –> 00:03:49,700
No fuss, no bother.
They were much bigger.
49
00:03:49,700 –> 00:03:55,300
Much darker problems on the
horizon until we have a nice.
50
00:03:55,300 –> 00:03:58,400
It was to be searing, aided
through the streets of shushan
51
00:03:58,400 –> 00:04:02,900
by Haman the Jews, enemy
haman’s.
52
00:04:02,900 –> 00:04:08,400
Diabolical decree still stood,
But Heyman.
53
00:04:09,400 –> 00:04:13,500
Well he scurried home.
No doubt through the back
54
00:04:13,500 –> 00:04:16,700
streets brothers and sisters
with a paper bag over his head.
55
00:04:16,700 –> 00:04:20,800
He was so embarrassed.
He could have wished that the
56
00:04:20,800 –> 00:04:25,400
ground would swallow him up.
And the roles brothers and
57
00:04:25,400 –> 00:04:29,400
sisters just like that were
reversed.
58
00:04:30,400 –> 00:04:34,200
And Mordecai.
And 4:1 head previously set
59
00:04:34,400 –> 00:04:39,000
morning in the Kings gate with
set cloth and Ashes on his head
60
00:04:40,000 –> 00:04:44,400
at haman’s decree and now it
Mordecai’s elevation Heyman is
61
00:04:44,400 –> 00:04:48,000
now the one morning with his
head covered and the covering of
62
00:04:48,000 –> 00:04:54,200
haman’s he’d by himself with his
own paper bag, as it were is
63
00:04:54,200 –> 00:04:56,500
just the incipient.
Fulfillment of what we’re going
64
00:04:56,500 –> 00:05:01,300
to read of later today.
In chapter 7 and verse The
65
00:05:01,300 –> 00:05:07,400
covering of heyman’s Face by the
king the absolute annihilation
66
00:05:07,400 –> 00:05:12,400
of sin and what Heyman did in
chapter 6 and verse 12 and
67
00:05:12,400 –> 00:05:15,200
covering his own.
He did was just an incipient
68
00:05:15,200 –> 00:05:16,900
fulfillment of all that was to
happen.
69
00:05:16,900 –> 00:05:21,300
Later that day Haman was well,
and truly on these slippery path
70
00:05:21,600 –> 00:05:22,800
down.
Was he not?
71
00:05:23,800 –> 00:05:24,600
And you know, brother and
sisters.
72
00:05:24,600 –> 00:05:27,500
I think there’s a terrible
lesson in this for us because
73
00:05:28,200 –> 00:05:32,200
can you imagine Mordecai morning
in the Kings gate?
74
00:05:32,200 –> 00:05:38,200
Crying and crying and crying.
Like we know he was but just
75
00:05:38,200 –> 00:05:41,900
like that brothers and sisters.
God is able to reverse all our
76
00:05:41,900 –> 00:05:46,900
fortunes and when it seems like
everything is lost.
77
00:05:47,700 –> 00:05:52,100
And the wicked seem distant to
Triumph when it doesn’t even
78
00:05:52,100 –> 00:05:55,900
look like our Lord.
Jesus Christ is even going to
79
00:05:55,900 –> 00:06:00,300
return.
Just like that, everything can
80
00:06:00,300 –> 00:06:03,700
change.
We need to learn to trust.
81
00:06:03,800 –> 00:06:07,100
Don’t we brothers and sisters
that even when things look
82
00:06:07,100 –> 00:06:11,800
awfully awfully bad in just a
moment of time the glories of
83
00:06:11,800 –> 00:06:17,000
the Kingdom can be here because
God is able to reverse our
84
00:06:17,000 –> 00:06:19,600
fortunes.
We saw that from our last
85
00:06:19,600 –> 00:06:21,900
session from Isaiah 61 you
remember that?
86
00:06:22,000 –> 00:06:25,700
We looked at those verses very
quickly in verses, 2 & 3, when
87
00:06:25,800 –> 00:06:30,200
God was able to turn the ashes
of more Decay into Beauty to
88
00:06:30,200 –> 00:06:34,600
turn his morning into Joy enters
heaviness in to praise and God
89
00:06:34,600 –> 00:06:38,300
is able to turn the Way of the
Wicked upside down.
90
00:06:38,300 –> 00:06:44,700
That says, in Psalm 146, and
verse 9, God is able to turn the
91
00:06:44,700 –> 00:06:49,400
Way of the Wicked upside down.
And now Heyman has his head
92
00:06:49,400 –> 00:06:53,300
covered, and he went his way
full of shame in a fearful sense
93
00:06:53,300 –> 00:06:58,600
of foreboding, and in verse 13,
he meets up with his wife zbrush
94
00:06:58,600 –> 00:07:03,700
and his friends again.
And Heyman told xerius has wife
95
00:07:04,200 –> 00:07:08,500
and all his friends, everything
that had befallen him.
96
00:07:10,300 –> 00:07:19,400
Bean seeds, his wise mean and Z
Rich, his wife unto him, if
97
00:07:19,400 –> 00:07:25,900
Mordecai be of the seed of the
Jews before whom thou Hast begun
98
00:07:25,900 –> 00:07:31,500
to fall, Thou shalt not Prevail
against him, but shalt surely
99
00:07:31,600 –> 00:07:37,300
fall before him.
It’s like a Gamaliel kind of
100
00:07:37,300 –> 00:07:41,000
prediction, is it not?
You can just imagine it.
101
00:07:41,000 –> 00:07:44,700
Can’t you brothers and sisters
through the paper bag, Haman
102
00:07:44,700 –> 00:07:48,100
will poke a couple of holes and
tell his friends and wife what a
103
00:07:48,100 –> 00:07:53,800
rotten morning his head It
doesn’t pull them his friends
104
00:07:53,800 –> 00:07:57,100
anymore.
Does it calls them his wise?
105
00:07:57,100 –> 00:08:01,600
Men, you know, it first back in
chapter 5, verse 14.
106
00:08:01,900 –> 00:08:04,300
We read.
I think it was just yesterday.
107
00:08:04,300 –> 00:08:08,300
They are all for Haman Haman.
You’re amazing.
108
00:08:08,300 –> 00:08:11,100
You’re the greatest, the
multitude of your riches, the
109
00:08:11,100 –> 00:08:15,500
multitude of your children, you
are absolutely fantastic.
110
00:08:17,000 –> 00:08:20,300
But now they’re singing quite a
different tune now.
111
00:08:21,400 –> 00:08:26,100
When humans began to fall,
they’re going to tell him, we
112
00:08:26,100 –> 00:08:30,400
knew all along.
We’re wise men.
113
00:08:33,299 –> 00:08:37,299
It’s all over Heyman.
If you are found to be fighting
114
00:08:37,500 –> 00:08:42,100
against the seed of the Jews,
then it’s all over.
115
00:08:43,000 –> 00:08:49,100
And now suddenly His Friends
full of wisdom, I want you to
116
00:08:49,100 –> 00:08:55,200
come to Numbers chapter 24.
We don’t know this for sure.
117
00:08:57,700 –> 00:09:05,700
But the remnants of the
Babylonian Magi started by the
118
00:09:05,700 –> 00:09:12,200
great Daniel himself, probably
filtered down into the issue
119
00:09:12,200 –> 00:09:16,800
lon’s of Persian Society.
And it could well be brothers
120
00:09:16,800 –> 00:09:21,200
and sisters that even though we
are significantly.
121
00:09:21,200 –> 00:09:25,200
After the time of Daniel, that
the wisdom of Daniel has
122
00:09:25,200 –> 00:09:28,200
percolated down into the next
Empire.
123
00:09:29,200 –> 00:09:34,300
He was after all still a great
man in the Persian Empire under
124
00:09:34,300 –> 00:09:40,400
Cyrus And it could well be that
these wise mean, these advisors
125
00:09:40,400 –> 00:09:43,300
of Haman were the top wise men
in the country?
126
00:09:44,300 –> 00:09:47,500
Maybe they were educated by
Daniel himself for one of
127
00:09:47,500 –> 00:09:52,700
Daniels prodigies, and if they
were Then maybe they knew of
128
00:09:52,700 –> 00:09:57,300
these words and numbers 24.
And look at these words, the
129
00:09:57,400 –> 00:10:02,900
prophecy of Balaam verse 3.
Then Balaam said the man whose
130
00:10:02,900 –> 00:10:05,600
eyes are open.
Has said, he has said, which
131
00:10:05,600 –> 00:10:09,100
heard the words of God, which
saw the vision of the almighty
132
00:10:09,100 –> 00:10:12,300
falling into a trance.
And having his eyes open, how
133
00:10:12,300 –> 00:10:15,600
goodly are they 10?
So Jacob, and they Tabernacles o
134
00:10:15,600 –> 00:10:20,600
Israel as the valleys are they
spread forth as Gardens by the
135
00:10:20,600 –> 00:10:24,900
Riverside?
Is the Trees of living arrows,
136
00:10:25,100 –> 00:10:28,500
which Yahweh have planted and is
cedar trees beside the waters.
137
00:10:29,100 –> 00:10:32,400
He shall pour the water out of
his buckets.
138
00:10:32,900 –> 00:10:38,100
And his seed shall be in many
Waters and Israel’s King.
139
00:10:38,500 –> 00:10:44,800
Shall be higher than a gag and
his kingdom shall be exalted.
140
00:10:46,100 –> 00:10:53,300
This 17, I in dropping the words
and in, in verse 17, which
141
00:10:53,300 –> 00:10:54,900
shouldn’t be there in the
original.
142
00:10:55,200 –> 00:10:58,300
I see him.
But not now.
143
00:10:59,100 –> 00:11:04,400
I Behold Him but not nigh.
There shall come a star out of
144
00:11:04,400 –> 00:11:08,000
Jacob and a scepter shall rise
out of Israel and shall Smite
145
00:11:08,000 –> 00:11:11,700
the corners of Moab and destroy
all the children of shift and
146
00:11:11,700 –> 00:11:15,300
even shall be a position C.
It also shall be a position for
147
00:11:15,300 –> 00:11:19,800
his enemies and Israel shall do
valiantly out of Jacob.
148
00:11:19,800 –> 00:11:24,400
Shall come, he that shall have
dominion and shall destroy him
149
00:11:24,400 –> 00:11:30,200
that remaineth of the city.
And when he looked on emelec, he
150
00:11:30,200 –> 00:11:34,500
took up his Parable and said,
Emily was the first of the
151
00:11:34,500 –> 00:11:41,900
nation’s, but his letter in
shall be that he perish forever.
152
00:11:42,900 –> 00:11:47,900
And maybe brothers and sisters,
the wise men of Haman knew that
153
00:11:47,900 –> 00:11:52,300
the seed of the Jews would be
higher than a gig and would
154
00:11:52,300 –> 00:11:55,600
cause a amalek to perish
forever.
155
00:11:58,000 –> 00:12:01,600
Come to Isaiah chapter 61
because it could be that they
156
00:12:01,600 –> 00:12:04,000
also knew of this little
prophecy.
157
00:12:04,000 –> 00:12:07,900
In Isaiah 61.
We’ve already looked at a couple
158
00:12:07,900 –> 00:12:12,900
of verses here in this chapter.
But turning a beauty into ashes
159
00:12:12,900 –> 00:12:16,300
and joy into morning.
Giving the Garment of Praise for
160
00:12:16,300 –> 00:12:20,600
the spirit of heaviness verse 3
that we just referenced a moment
161
00:12:20,600 –> 00:12:24,700
ago.
But look what it says, in Isaiah
162
00:12:24,700 –> 00:12:31,000
61 and verse 9.
And this seed shall be known
163
00:12:31,000 –> 00:12:35,200
among the Gentiles and their
offspring among the people all.
164
00:12:35,200 –> 00:12:40,400
Let’s see them shall acknowledge
them that they are the seed
165
00:12:41,100 –> 00:12:45,200
which Yahweh hath blessed.
And you notice what Sera said
166
00:12:45,700 –> 00:12:50,200
she didn’t say, did she if
you’ve started to fold before
167
00:12:50,200 –> 00:12:59,700
the Jews, she said, if you have
started to fall before the seed
168
00:13:00,200 –> 00:13:06,400
of the Jews, And the elevation
of Mordecai from ashes and
169
00:13:06,500 –> 00:13:10,200
morning to beauty.
And praise would also signify,
170
00:13:10,800 –> 00:13:15,900
the great elevation of the
Jewish Nation, God would always
171
00:13:16,000 –> 00:13:18,900
Bliss this people.
They are the seed which Yahweh
172
00:13:18,900 –> 00:13:23,200
hath blessed and maybe zbrush
ends these suddenly wise
173
00:13:23,200 –> 00:13:25,900
counselors knew of some of these
things.
174
00:13:26,800 –> 00:13:28,700
And they prophesied to Haman
Haman.
175
00:13:29,400 –> 00:13:32,400
It’s all over.
You can imagine the
176
00:13:32,400 –> 00:13:36,300
tender-hearted 0h, loving her
husband.
177
00:13:36,600 –> 00:13:41,400
It’s all over honey.
What a lovely wife.
178
00:13:41,400 –> 00:13:48,800
She was and before Heyman can
say, but how do you know How do
179
00:13:48,800 –> 00:13:50,600
you know that?
I’m going to for, how can you
180
00:13:50,600 –> 00:13:51,700
be?
Absolutely sure.
181
00:13:51,700 –> 00:13:53,700
We read in.
Verse 14 that while they were
182
00:13:53,700 –> 00:13:56,200
you talking with them?
Came the Kings, Chamberlain
183
00:13:56,200 –> 00:14:01,000
didn’t hasted to bring Heyman
under the banquet that Easter
184
00:14:01,000 –> 00:14:04,200
head prepared.
You remember that?
185
00:14:04,200 –> 00:14:08,900
We said that from this moment on
or from at least earlier in
186
00:14:08,900 –> 00:14:14,800
chapter 5 verse 7, the king is
ensuring that Haman is making
187
00:14:14,800 –> 00:14:21,700
haste making haste 6:10.
Make haste, Taemin 6:14 for
188
00:14:21,700 –> 00:14:26,000
Chamberlain said, make haste,
and God does not give Heyman a
189
00:14:26,000 –> 00:14:28,100
sickened to give us thoughts
together.
190
00:14:29,000 –> 00:14:33,200
And so now significantly more
miserable than when he first
191
00:14:33,200 –> 00:14:36,400
arrived home, Heyman has hasted
to the banquet and events are
192
00:14:36,400 –> 00:14:39,900
compounding together to bring
about his demise.
193
00:14:41,400 –> 00:14:43,700
Brothers, this is it’s only when
you read the story again and
194
00:14:43,700 –> 00:14:45,600
again that you notice little
details.
195
00:14:45,600 –> 00:14:49,000
But did you notice that in
chapter 6 and verse 14?
196
00:14:49,600 –> 00:14:54,800
It says, while they were you
talking with him, came the Kings
197
00:14:54,800 –> 00:14:57,800
Chamberlain’s.
You know, the king is the most
198
00:14:57,800 –> 00:15:01,600
powerful Monarch in the world
and up until now every
199
00:15:01,600 –> 00:15:07,400
commandment has only needed one
of the Kings Chamberlain’s.
200
00:15:07,600 –> 00:15:11,000
But now we have Kings
Chamberlain’s, plural.
201
00:15:11,100 –> 00:15:17,400
All the angels are anxious that
this story be over and Heyman be
202
00:15:17,400 –> 00:15:20,700
destroyed, and they hasted him
off to the banquet and marvelous
203
00:15:20,700 –> 00:15:23,300
drama.
And now it’s going to come to an
204
00:15:23,300 –> 00:15:27,700
unbelievable climax.
We come to chapter 7, The story
205
00:15:27,700 –> 00:15:32,200
of the second banquet of wine,
you know, it’s a simple scene,
206
00:15:32,200 –> 00:15:33,500
isn’t it?
Brothers and sisters, there’s
207
00:15:33,500 –> 00:15:40,200
only three characters, the king,
his bride and the diable loss
208
00:15:40,800 –> 00:15:45,600
three quite different characters
with three quite different
209
00:15:45,600 –> 00:15:51,800
moods.
The king is content that earlier
210
00:15:51,800 –> 00:15:54,900
in the morning, he has just
repaid a faithful servant of the
211
00:15:54,900 –> 00:15:57,900
round by giving him his Zhu
reward.
212
00:15:59,000 –> 00:16:02,500
Heyman is preoccupied and
worried intense.
213
00:16:04,200 –> 00:16:10,600
It’s that is Serene and calm.
No doubt.
214
00:16:10,600 –> 00:16:14,300
She’s been informed of the
parade of Mordecai, through the
215
00:16:14,300 –> 00:16:18,900
streets of shushan and she now
knows exactly where the Kings
216
00:16:18,900 –> 00:16:23,100
sympathies lie.
She’s confident of the Kings
217
00:16:23,100 –> 00:16:26,900
position.
We find again that it is a
218
00:16:26,900 –> 00:16:30,600
banquet of wine.
The margin in verse 1 says it’s
219
00:16:30,600 –> 00:16:36,100
a banquet of drinking and Sunday
by Sunday dozen such as we come,
220
00:16:36,100 –> 00:16:41,400
don’t we to a banquet of wine?
We come to a table that has
221
00:16:41,600 –> 00:16:45,600
three characters around.
It are King symbolized in the
222
00:16:45,600 –> 00:16:49,400
Bread and Wine.
We ask ourselves as Easter, the
223
00:16:49,400 –> 00:16:55,000
bride of Christ of the air, and
inside us looks, the Diabolical
224
00:16:55,000 –> 00:16:58,500
Haman, and we come to share
wine.
225
00:16:59,400 –> 00:17:02,700
And the question that we ask
ourselves every Sunday morning
226
00:17:03,100 –> 00:17:08,500
is whose side are we on?
Because every Sunday morning is
227
00:17:08,500 –> 00:17:11,500
like a Day of Reckoning just
like this Feast, it’s a day of
228
00:17:11,500 –> 00:17:15,500
great decision and we need to
make make ourselves clear as to
229
00:17:15,500 –> 00:17:17,000
whose side.
Are we on?
230
00:17:18,400 –> 00:17:21,000
While we read in verse two, that
this is the second day of the
231
00:17:21,000 –> 00:17:25,099
banquet, what does it mean?
When it says it’s the second day
232
00:17:25,099 –> 00:17:28,400
of the banquet?
Well, we understand that the
233
00:17:28,400 –> 00:17:32,800
first day was chapter 5, verses
5 to weight than previous day.
234
00:17:32,800 –> 00:17:38,400
The first banquet of wine.
Now, we come to the second day.
235
00:17:39,200 –> 00:17:43,300
And so now, as we saw last time,
this is the day of the
236
00:17:43,300 –> 00:17:47,600
Resurrection.
The day of our Lord, Jesus
237
00:17:47,600 –> 00:17:51,300
Christ being revealed as the
perfect manifestation of the
238
00:17:51,300 –> 00:17:55,900
father risen from the dead.
And on this day, the day of the
239
00:17:55,900 –> 00:17:59,600
Resurrection, The Power of sin
is going to be absolutely
240
00:17:59,800 –> 00:18:04,100
revealed for what it is and on
the same day, every solutely
241
00:18:04,100 –> 00:18:07,400
destroyed.
And so the atmosphere is tense
242
00:18:08,400 –> 00:18:11,500
and the King asked the question
which he’s been dying to know
243
00:18:11,500 –> 00:18:16,900
the answer to all night.
Why are we here in stir?
244
00:18:18,500 –> 00:18:20,800
What is that petition Queen
Esther?
245
00:18:21,700 –> 00:18:25,000
What is it that you want this
in?
246
00:18:25,000 –> 00:18:30,900
Type is the is the question of
Psalm 2 and verse 8 ask of me
247
00:18:31,400 –> 00:18:34,500
and I shall give Thee the
Heathen for thine inheritance
248
00:18:34,900 –> 00:18:37,900
and the uttermost parts of the
Earth for thy possession.
249
00:18:39,000 –> 00:18:40,600
What does that petitioner
Esther?
250
00:18:40,900 –> 00:18:46,000
And what is thy request?
And in verse 3 is the blurts out
251
00:18:46,000 –> 00:18:48,800
of true feelings that have been
bottled up for Days.
252
00:18:49,200 –> 00:18:54,200
It’s a passionate request. and
it’s to the queen answered and
253
00:18:54,200 –> 00:18:59,000
said, If I have found favor in
thy sight, O King.
254
00:18:59,900 –> 00:19:05,200
And if it, please the king, let
my life be given me at my
255
00:19:05,200 –> 00:19:08,900
petition.
My people at my request.
256
00:19:12,000 –> 00:19:15,700
And I think there’s an important
lesson here because the king had
257
00:19:15,700 –> 00:19:18,900
asked her.
What is that petition?
258
00:19:20,000 –> 00:19:26,800
And it has answer is verse 3.
My Life, The King asked her,
259
00:19:26,900 –> 00:19:34,200
what is thy request and Esters
answer is My people and the
260
00:19:34,200 –> 00:19:38,100
answers are really one.
They are exactly the same
261
00:19:38,100 –> 00:19:42,500
because he’s so totally bound up
in the Affairs of who people,
262
00:19:43,100 –> 00:19:46,700
and to people of all being
fervently fasting and praying
263
00:19:47,000 –> 00:19:53,400
for her that the petition and
the requests are one You know,
264
00:19:53,400 –> 00:19:56,000
brothers and sisters, just
right.
265
00:19:56,000 –> 00:19:59,600
There is one of the great
secrets of the truth.
266
00:20:01,200 –> 00:20:07,500
We save ourselves our life as it
were by being absolutely bound
267
00:20:07,500 –> 00:20:12,400
up in the lives of our brothers
and sisters by concentrating on
268
00:20:12,400 –> 00:20:18,000
saving our people.
And is this petition in requests
269
00:20:18,300 –> 00:20:21,400
where one?
She didn’t say save me, okay?
270
00:20:22,700 –> 00:20:27,900
and well, if there’s any Mercy
lift, maybe you can save some of
271
00:20:27,900 –> 00:20:33,700
my people No Easter enter people
are one.
272
00:20:34,200 –> 00:20:37,100
They’re going to be saved
together that in this problem
273
00:20:37,100 –> 00:20:41,000
together, and they’re going to
be saved together.
274
00:20:41,800 –> 00:20:44,400
We don’t come.
Do we brothers and sisters week
275
00:20:44,400 –> 00:20:49,100
by week to ask that we might be
saved, we come, or at least we
276
00:20:49,100 –> 00:20:55,200
should to ask that everyone who
does God’s will who reflects his
277
00:20:55,200 –> 00:20:58,600
glory might be saved.
And Esther was inextricably
278
00:20:58,600 –> 00:21:02,400
linked with her.
What’s her brothers and sisters.
279
00:21:03,100 –> 00:21:04,100
But, you know, brothers and
sisters.
280
00:21:04,100 –> 00:21:08,000
There’s another dimension to the
story because if Easter
281
00:21:08,100 –> 00:21:14,800
represents for us the bride of
Christ, the Redeemed by faith,
282
00:21:15,000 –> 00:21:19,900
the Gentile bride, who has
called herself or has been
283
00:21:19,900 –> 00:21:23,400
called, at least out of the
Nations and given the gospel, by
284
00:21:23,400 –> 00:21:30,600
grace and favor, not by law.
Then here is another lesson that
285
00:21:30,800 –> 00:21:36,700
Esther’s fate is inextricably
linked with the fate of the
286
00:21:36,700 –> 00:21:42,100
Jews.
Only the bride’s stood between
287
00:21:42,500 –> 00:21:47,700
Israel and death.
Now, what you come to Romans
288
00:21:47,700 –> 00:21:53,200
because Paul puts this so much
better than any of us can.
289
00:21:53,200 –> 00:21:57,800
And in Romans chapter 5, he says
these words.
290
00:21:57,800 –> 00:22:03,700
And I want to just put a couple
of quotations and Romans
291
00:22:03,700 –> 00:22:05,600
together, and I think you’ll see
the point.
292
00:22:07,800 –> 00:22:10,700
Because we’re talking today
about our Salvation from sin and
293
00:22:10,700 –> 00:22:13,500
death and Romans 5 is just about
that.
294
00:22:13,500 –> 00:22:15,900
And we read in Romans 5 and
verse 10.
295
00:22:15,900 –> 00:22:22,400
These famous words, for if, when
we were enemies, we were
296
00:22:22,400 –> 00:22:29,900
reconciled to God by the death
of his son, much more being
297
00:22:30,000 –> 00:22:33,600
reconciled.
We shall be saved by his life.
298
00:22:33,600 –> 00:22:37,000
Now, this is how it works when
we get baptized brothers and
299
00:22:37,000 –> 00:22:40,900
sisters, we Say don’t we that
the flesh profits nothing and
300
00:22:40,900 –> 00:22:45,300
when we go down into the Waters
of baptism, we say that the old
301
00:22:45,300 –> 00:22:47,900
man of the flesh must be drowned
to death.
302
00:22:49,200 –> 00:22:56,800
And God says, I agree.
And we are reconciled to God.
303
00:22:57,000 –> 00:23:01,000
We agree.
When we go down into the Waters
304
00:23:01,000 –> 00:23:05,000
of baptism and we’re under the
water, we agree that we should
305
00:23:05,000 –> 00:23:08,800
be dead.
And God says I agree.
306
00:23:08,800 –> 00:23:12,800
We are reconciled.
But under the water brothers and
307
00:23:12,800 –> 00:23:18,700
sisters, there is no life.
We are only saved when we come
308
00:23:18,700 –> 00:23:25,000
up out of the Waters of baptism.
We are only saved by his life.
309
00:23:26,000 –> 00:23:30,600
Reconciled that’s saved by his
life.
310
00:23:31,200 –> 00:23:36,700
Now, come to Romans chapter 11
and verse 15, because all of us
311
00:23:36,700 –> 00:23:40,700
are clear with met in Romans 5,
we understand that and have
312
00:23:40,700 –> 00:23:46,000
since the day of their baptism,
But look what postseason Romans
313
00:23:46,000 –> 00:23:51,000
11 verse 15 talking about the
Jews, the fate of the nation of
314
00:23:51,008 –> 00:23:55,700
Israel for and look how similar
this languages in Romans 11.
315
00:23:55,700 –> 00:23:59,300
Verse 15 for f.
The casting away of the Jews.
316
00:23:59,800 –> 00:24:05,800
Be the reconciling of the world.
What shall the receiving of
317
00:24:05,800 –> 00:24:10,000
them?
Be but life from the dead and
318
00:24:10,000 –> 00:24:13,000
brothers and sisters.
Look how those two references.
319
00:24:13,000 –> 00:24:15,700
Go side-by-side, you know what
that’s saying to us?
320
00:24:17,000 –> 00:24:21,800
That same that unless the nation
of Israel is resurrected and
321
00:24:21,800 –> 00:24:25,800
saved the cannot be life from
the dead.
322
00:24:26,100 –> 00:24:31,900
Yeah, Our Fate is inextricably
bound up with the Jews and it’s,
323
00:24:31,900 –> 00:24:35,700
there’s attitude.
The brys attitude to that nation
324
00:24:35,800 –> 00:24:38,100
is going to be vital.
In the story.
325
00:24:38,800 –> 00:24:44,100
We grafted into the hope of
Israel, we are Abraham’s seed as
326
00:24:44,100 –> 00:24:47,800
it were and if they can’t then
Actual nation of Israel.
327
00:24:47,800 –> 00:24:49,900
Can’t be saved as a people
thing.
328
00:24:49,900 –> 00:24:55,600
We cannot be saved either, and
so, so it’s the stands alongside
329
00:24:55,600 –> 00:24:59,900
those people, as well, doesn’t
she in the type bound up with
330
00:24:59,900 –> 00:25:03,000
their lives?
And, you know, business is when
331
00:25:03,000 –> 00:25:05,800
our Lord Jesus Christ comes,
it’s going to be exactly like
332
00:25:05,800 –> 00:25:08,600
that.
We are going to be the Saints,
333
00:25:08,600 –> 00:25:12,700
the bride of Christ immortalized
by God and we are going to go
334
00:25:12,700 –> 00:25:19,300
out and fight on God’s behalf to
Redeem the Jews right out of the
335
00:25:19,300 –> 00:25:22,100
hands of go.
Ugh, the lettered a
336
00:25:22,100 –> 00:25:27,100
manifestation of Haman the
agagite and just, when when
337
00:25:27,100 –> 00:25:32,300
Deliverance seems hopeless for
the Jews, when it seems distant,
338
00:25:32,300 –> 00:25:38,500
that gorg will have power.
The bride, the Saints will step
339
00:25:38,500 –> 00:25:41,500
forward and plead for the people
of Israel.
340
00:25:42,400 –> 00:25:46,800
Our lives are bound up with that
people in Easter didn’t see
341
00:25:46,800 –> 00:25:49,500
herself as somebody different
did, she brothers and sisters?
342
00:25:49,900 –> 00:25:54,200
She saw her life inextricably
tied up with, not just two
343
00:25:54,200 –> 00:25:56,700
brothers and sisters, but the
people of Israel.
344
00:25:57,300 –> 00:26:01,200
We are sold.
She says beckoned chapter 7 and
345
00:26:01,200 –> 00:26:03,500
verse 4.
We are sold.
346
00:26:04,000 –> 00:26:09,400
I and my people to be destroyed
to be slain in to perish.
347
00:26:10,300 –> 00:26:14,600
But if we had been sold for
bondman and Bond woman, I had
348
00:26:14,600 –> 00:26:19,100
held my tongue, although the
enemy could not countervail the
349
00:26:19,100 –> 00:26:24,500
Kings damage.
And now, the veil is lifted from
350
00:26:24,500 –> 00:26:27,700
the identity of one of the two
characters at the Kings Table
351
00:26:27,700 –> 00:26:31,500
Easter.
She says, I’m a jewess.
352
00:26:32,100 –> 00:26:35,000
She was part of the people that
had been sold.
353
00:26:36,100 –> 00:26:40,300
And haven’t we all brothers and
sisters been sold under sin.
354
00:26:40,300 –> 00:26:45,900
As Paul puts it so well in
Romans 7 verse 14, we are all of
355
00:26:45,900 –> 00:26:52,000
us slaves to sin and death
distant to die to be destroyed
356
00:26:52,300 –> 00:26:59,300
to perish and see how flawlessly
Easter quotes from the very
357
00:26:59,700 –> 00:27:04,100
decree of Haman.
In chapter 3, in verse 13, it
358
00:27:04,100 –> 00:27:06,500
had been indelibly, etched To
him memory.
359
00:27:07,100 –> 00:27:11,100
See the margin.
We are sold that they should
360
00:27:11,100 –> 00:27:14,800
destroy, and kill and cause us
to perish.
361
00:27:15,300 –> 00:27:19,400
What’s a Quaver in her voice.
She repeats, haman’s, exact
362
00:27:19,400 –> 00:27:23,400
words looking straight in his
eye across the table.
363
00:27:25,500 –> 00:27:28,500
In this Dimension brothers and
sisters Heyman, looking more and
364
00:27:28,500 –> 00:27:33,700
more uncomfortable squirming in
his seat, its face.
365
00:27:33,700 –> 00:27:38,500
As flashing red, cold sweat, is
running down his back as hard as
366
00:27:38,500 –> 00:27:41,800
beating right out of his chest,
his mouth gone dry.
367
00:27:43,900 –> 00:27:51,400
The Bold Brazen audacious Haman
is gone.
368
00:27:52,700 –> 00:27:57,300
And all that’s left brothers and
sisters is the lily-livered
369
00:27:57,300 –> 00:28:01,500
Cowardly.
Spineless and malachite.
370
00:28:04,600 –> 00:28:07,000
You know he was hoping
desperately wasn’t it that he
371
00:28:07,000 –> 00:28:10,400
was hoping desperately that.
The king might have a slight
372
00:28:10,400 –> 00:28:13,600
memory lapse and fail to
remember the decree that his
373
00:28:13,600 –> 00:28:17,400
signs asked about four days
earlier heyman’s instigation.
374
00:28:18,100 –> 00:28:21,300
But now they looked across at
the king, he can see in the
375
00:28:21,300 –> 00:28:24,100
Kings face that the pin is
beginning to drop.
376
00:28:25,300 –> 00:28:27,900
We’ve been sold out of Kings is
Esther.
377
00:28:29,600 –> 00:28:33,500
If we just been sold as slaves,
is kept of Labor.
378
00:28:33,500 –> 00:28:37,100
As I might have submitted to
God’s will, but O King, we’ve
379
00:28:37,100 –> 00:28:45,400
been sold to death and if we die
The enemy could not countervail
380
00:28:45,400 –> 00:28:48,500
the Kings damage.
One of Haman.
381
00:28:48,500 –> 00:28:54,900
The Jews in Ami said, well back
in 3:18 said O King.
382
00:28:55,400 –> 00:28:59,700
Oh, King live forever.
There is a certain people in
383
00:28:59,700 –> 00:29:03,700
your kingdom and it is not
profitable.
384
00:29:04,500 –> 00:29:07,700
For you to keep them to suffer
them to live.
385
00:29:08,300 –> 00:29:15,100
And now is to cease its Ally.
Heyman is wrong.
386
00:29:15,600 –> 00:29:19,500
The revised Standard Version
says are Affliction is not to be
387
00:29:19,500 –> 00:29:22,500
compared to the loss of the
king.
388
00:29:23,000 –> 00:29:27,400
The revised version has the
king, could not be compensated
389
00:29:28,000 –> 00:29:30,800
because brothers and sisters.
The Jews were the backbone of
390
00:29:30,800 –> 00:29:34,100
the Persian economy.
And Easter is saying, the enemy
391
00:29:34,100 –> 00:29:37,400
is wrong.
He was deliberately deceitful
392
00:29:37,700 –> 00:29:40,600
when he said that it is not
profitable to keep them alive.
393
00:29:41,400 –> 00:29:45,300
He shamelessly mislead you when
he said he could reimburse the
394
00:29:45,300 –> 00:29:50,000
Kings treasuries for their loss.
The truth is O King that these
395
00:29:50,000 –> 00:29:57,700
people are invaluable, it would
be impossible to calculate their
396
00:29:57,700 –> 00:30:00,600
loss.
And it’s true brothers and
397
00:30:00,600 –> 00:30:05,400
sisters, isn’t it?
If we think about just the blood
398
00:30:05,500 –> 00:30:12,600
of Mordecai alone, That was
priceless in First Peter.
399
00:30:12,700 –> 00:30:17,000
Chapter 1 verse 19 says, the
blood of our Lord, Jesus Christ
400
00:30:17,000 –> 00:30:20,700
is more precious than
corruptible gold and silver.
401
00:30:21,900 –> 00:30:26,700
You couldn’t just pay for the
lives of Mordecai and the Jews.
402
00:30:27,000 –> 00:30:31,400
They were incalculably valuable.
And as the king looks across the
403
00:30:31,400 –> 00:30:36,100
table and his beautiful bride,
he could see the plain truth of
404
00:30:36,100 –> 00:30:40,400
those words.
If he lost that woman alone,
405
00:30:41,700 –> 00:30:45,800
that would be a disaster.
You think about it rather than
406
00:30:45,800 –> 00:30:49,500
sisters in the type?
How true it is if Mordecai is
407
00:30:49,500 –> 00:30:54,100
Stir and the Jews were to be
destroyed by Haman, there simply
408
00:30:54,100 –> 00:30:59,000
is going to be nothing left of
the empire of a has you Eros.
409
00:30:59,000 –> 00:31:02,100
His whole realm rested on these
three groups.
410
00:31:02,100 –> 00:31:07,200
The Queen, the Faithful Servants
like Mordecai and the Jews.
411
00:31:08,200 –> 00:31:11,000
These three groups with the glue
that was holding the kingdom
412
00:31:11,000 –> 00:31:13,400
together and had true, is it
brothers and sisters.
413
00:31:13,400 –> 00:31:16,300
If in the purpose of God, we
took out our Lord.
414
00:31:16,300 –> 00:31:21,200
Jesus Christ, the nation of
Israel and the bride of Christ.
415
00:31:21,400 –> 00:31:25,800
There isn’t anything left.
Those three groups are Priceless
416
00:31:25,800 –> 00:31:29,300
to God’s purpose and the King
suddenly realized the truth of
417
00:31:29,300 –> 00:31:33,600
Esther’s words.
He’d come so close, Heavenly
418
00:31:33,600 –> 00:31:37,800
brothers and sisters to losing
everything that he held dear to.
419
00:31:38,500 –> 00:31:44,500
Almost by Kingston as it were in
been intentionally deceived and
420
00:31:44,500 –> 00:31:48,300
he was just like his breadth
away from losing everything.
421
00:31:49,400 –> 00:31:55,400
And as blood begins to boil, the
king is furious.
422
00:31:55,400 –> 00:32:00,000
And we read in verse 5 then the
king ahasuerus answered and said
423
00:32:00,100 –> 00:32:05,000
unto Esther.
The queen who is he And where is
424
00:32:05,000 –> 00:32:08,600
he?
That doth presume in his heart
425
00:32:08,600 –> 00:32:13,400
to do so.
Literally it means he threatened
426
00:32:13,800 –> 00:32:18,200
and said he’s incensed that the
life of his Queen could be
427
00:32:18,200 –> 00:32:21,100
endangered in the lives of her
people and it has happened.
428
00:32:21,100 –> 00:32:25,800
Right under his nose.
Who would dare to do such a
429
00:32:25,808 –> 00:32:32,100
thing, just imagine Paul Heyman.
Now, if he was scared by
430
00:32:32,100 –> 00:32:38,600
Easter’s words, imagine the raw
of the king shrinking down a
431
00:32:38,608 –> 00:32:42,400
little more into his chair.
Now, he’s beginning to sweat
432
00:32:42,400 –> 00:32:46,000
from every pore.
You know, brothers and sisters.
433
00:32:46,100 –> 00:32:52,200
I don’t think that the King was
so obtuse that he couldn’t
434
00:32:52,200 –> 00:32:56,900
remember what he’d signed just
four days before and he couldn’t
435
00:32:56,900 –> 00:33:01,500
get Esther’s obvious allusion to
haman’s decree.
436
00:33:01,500 –> 00:33:03,200
I don’t think the King was that
silly.
437
00:33:03,200 –> 00:33:07,000
I think what is clearly trying
to do is pretend innocent so
438
00:33:07,000 –> 00:33:09,900
that he can express righteous
anger.
439
00:33:10,100 –> 00:33:15,500
Before the enemies identity is
revealed he was Suspect the
440
00:33:15,500 –> 00:33:18,700
scene.
So that whoever it is and he
441
00:33:18,700 –> 00:33:24,200
knows, it will be Heyman is
already set for extreme
442
00:33:24,200 –> 00:33:27,500
punishment.
Who would dare presume to do
443
00:33:27,500 –> 00:33:30,000
such a thing.
He’s sitting the scene so that
444
00:33:30,000 –> 00:33:34,100
Heyman cannot Escape his wrath.
When it does fall in this kind
445
00:33:34,100 –> 00:33:38,600
of Roth brothers and sisters is
only going to be satisfied with
446
00:33:38,600 –> 00:33:43,100
an execution.
See what the margins is, whose
447
00:33:43,100 –> 00:33:46,900
heart has filled him with a
Desire to do a thing like that,
448
00:33:47,100 –> 00:33:52,000
who has a heart that there does
that black asks, the king and
449
00:33:52,000 –> 00:33:57,900
only one man had a heart like
that back in. 5:9 tells us that
450
00:33:57,900 –> 00:34:05,700
Heyman had a heart that was full
of indignation of hatred towards
451
00:34:05,700 –> 00:34:11,100
Mordecai, who’s got a heart like
that only one man Haman the
452
00:34:11,100 –> 00:34:17,800
agagite, the man who was born to
hate, And so the time for the
453
00:34:18,100 –> 00:34:22,500
announcement of Kingston had
come and if so that that lovely
454
00:34:22,500 –> 00:34:28,300
gracious, queen summoned, all
her inward strength, and use the
455
00:34:28,300 –> 00:34:31,699
strongest possible terms that
she could possibly think of.
456
00:34:33,000 –> 00:34:37,699
And Esther said, verse 6.
The adversary.
457
00:34:39,000 –> 00:34:45,699
And enemy is.
This wicked Haman.
458
00:34:48,100 –> 00:34:53,199
Literally the words mean the
oppressor, the man whose heart
459
00:34:53,199 –> 00:35:00,200
is capable of such unbounded
hate, is this intrinsically
460
00:35:00,400 –> 00:35:05,800
evil, hangman?
And it’s all out in the open.
461
00:35:07,100 –> 00:35:11,300
The king didn’t need to set up a
Judicial tribunal.
462
00:35:12,100 –> 00:35:16,200
He didn’t need to slap in an
independent investigation, a
463
00:35:16,200 –> 00:35:19,200
committee of inquiry to see
whether Easter was telling the
464
00:35:19,200 –> 00:35:22,200
truth.
It was written all over heyman’s
465
00:35:22,200 –> 00:35:27,100
face, every switching.
Poor is just crying out guilty.
466
00:35:29,500 –> 00:35:35,000
And she was afraid before the
king and queen literally, it
467
00:35:35,000 –> 00:35:39,200
means that he was petrified with
tear, and he realized any
468
00:35:39,200 –> 00:35:43,000
brothers and sisters, all too
late that sitting around that
469
00:35:43,000 –> 00:35:51,100
table, there were only three
people and now two of them.
470
00:35:52,100 –> 00:35:58,700
The king and the queen are one
that deeply in love that.
471
00:35:58,700 –> 00:36:01,400
In separably linked to each
other.
472
00:36:03,700 –> 00:36:07,500
And suddenly Heyman feels
terribly, terribly alone.
473
00:36:07,800 –> 00:36:14,400
He had completely misread the
relationship of the king to the
474
00:36:14,400 –> 00:36:17,000
queen.
He completely misread the
475
00:36:17,000 –> 00:36:22,200
intimacy of a has awareness for
his wife and now, they stood as
476
00:36:22,200 –> 00:36:26,500
one the Queen’s shaking from a
leaf that it’s all over and the
477
00:36:26,500 –> 00:36:30,300
Kings shaking from white-hot
Rage and see what the margins is
478
00:36:30,500 –> 00:36:35,400
Haman was afraid at the Reasons
or literally, the face of the
479
00:36:35,400 –> 00:36:39,600
king, he could see written all
over the Kings face the verdict,
480
00:36:39,600 –> 00:36:46,200
even before the trial began.
The Jews enemy was now the
481
00:36:46,200 –> 00:36:51,200
King’s enemy and you know it
says in Proverbs 16 verses 14 to
482
00:36:51,200 –> 00:36:58,600
15 the wrath of a king is as
messengers of death and however
483
00:36:58,800 –> 00:37:03,000
powerful Heyman thought he was
In This Moment of Truth.
484
00:37:03,000 –> 00:37:06,700
He suddenly realized and he did
all the power that he’d once
485
00:37:06,700 –> 00:37:09,900
head was given to him by the
king.
486
00:37:10,900 –> 00:37:14,200
All the power that he thought he
had in the Empire making people
487
00:37:14,200 –> 00:37:20,100
bow down to him, was delegated
authority and just like that.
488
00:37:20,100 –> 00:37:25,000
God took all of it back and
revealed in the story is not
489
00:37:25,000 –> 00:37:29,300
just Easter, not just the Kings
died at a loss.
490
00:37:30,400 –> 00:37:36,600
But now, we have the rise, the
revelation of the king himself
491
00:37:37,100 –> 00:37:40,700
and just like that he takes from
Haman, all the power back.
492
00:37:42,100 –> 00:37:45,600
And says, thank you very much,
but I am the king.
493
00:37:47,600 –> 00:37:51,000
And overcome with emotion and
verse 7, the Kings stormed out
494
00:37:51,000 –> 00:37:54,200
of the garden.
He was clearly still in control
495
00:37:54,200 –> 00:37:57,500
of the whole situation and felt
happy to leave it like that.
496
00:37:57,500 –> 00:38:00,300
But he could not, he could not
stay in that room.
497
00:38:00,300 –> 00:38:03,000
And is there any Wonder brother
and sisters overcome with
498
00:38:03,000 –> 00:38:06,000
emotion?
He’s struggling to take in not
499
00:38:06,000 –> 00:38:09,500
just what he’s been told but the
consequences of what has been
500
00:38:09,500 –> 00:38:12,300
told it was one.
That was bad enough.
501
00:38:12,300 –> 00:38:17,200
Wasn’t it to try and grasp the
enormity of the crime to try?
502
00:38:17,500 –> 00:38:22,000
Grasp, The Audacity Of Haman
that he he was trying to under
503
00:38:22,000 –> 00:38:27,200
the very Kings, knows Massacre,
all the Jews, but what about the
504
00:38:27,200 –> 00:38:30,400
mess of implications of what
haman’s already done.
505
00:38:30,800 –> 00:38:34,400
The law that cannot be changed.
And the King was overcome and he
506
00:38:34,400 –> 00:38:41,300
went out in his Roth.
You know, I want you to come to
507
00:38:41,300 –> 00:38:47,500
Psalm 21 because probably in
this Psalm we have revealed for
508
00:38:47,500 –> 00:38:56,600
us the attitude of the king.
He was wrong, he was Furious.
509
00:38:57,800 –> 00:39:03,000
And look what it says in Psalm
21 verse verse 8, thine hand
510
00:39:03,000 –> 00:39:08,800
shall find out, all thine
enemies, thy right hand Mordecai
511
00:39:08,800 –> 00:39:11,200
shall find out those that hate
thee.
512
00:39:11,700 –> 00:39:14,900
Thou shalt make them as a fiery
oven in the time of thine anger.
513
00:39:15,000 –> 00:39:18,700
Yahweh shall swallow them up.
And as Roth, and the fire shall
514
00:39:18,700 –> 00:39:22,600
devour them, their fruit shalt
thou destroy from the earth.
515
00:39:22,600 –> 00:39:26,000
And this seed, from among the
children of men for they
516
00:39:26,000 –> 00:39:31,300
intended evil, See, they
imagined a mischievous device
517
00:39:31,300 –> 00:39:36,300
which they are not able to
perform therefore shall make
518
00:39:36,300 –> 00:39:39,400
them turn their back.
When they shall make ready,
519
00:39:39,400 –> 00:39:43,100
thine arrows upon thy strings
against the face of them, be
520
00:39:43,100 –> 00:39:46,000
thou, exalted Yahweh, and then
Own Strength.
521
00:39:46,500 –> 00:39:51,200
So will we sing and praise thy
power and let’s check that about
522
00:39:51,200 –> 00:39:54,500
the king.
We have the Kings Fury and wrath
523
00:39:54,800 –> 00:40:01,200
at finding out that someone has
As intended evil against him and
524
00:40:01,200 –> 00:40:06,800
he storms out into the garden.
He wants to control his
525
00:40:06,800 –> 00:40:09,500
emotions.
And so, with the fury of the
526
00:40:09,500 –> 00:40:14,200
king removed Heyman Falls before
a set of plead for his life,
527
00:40:14,300 –> 00:40:17,300
maybe he thinks he could use his
chance to touch it.
528
00:40:17,300 –> 00:40:21,000
His heart to convince her, that
it was, it was all just a big
529
00:40:21,000 –> 00:40:24,000
mistake.
I really didn’t mean it.
530
00:40:24,000 –> 00:40:28,000
He’s the truly to throw himself
on her mercy.
531
00:40:29,500 –> 00:40:34,200
So typical of Haman the agagite,
he’s a coward, like all the
532
00:40:34,200 –> 00:40:39,300
amalekites were before him.
And when he was a big shot, he
533
00:40:39,300 –> 00:40:43,100
would rant and Rave about
Exterminating all those filthy
534
00:40:43,100 –> 00:40:45,900
Jews.
He couldn’t stand the sight of
535
00:40:45,908 –> 00:40:49,900
the moving Shadows, but now that
he’s exposed and frightened,
536
00:40:51,800 –> 00:40:56,900
Now, that he is in the Limelight
now that his life’s on the line,
537
00:40:58,000 –> 00:41:01,600
he’s not above begging for his
life from a Jew.
538
00:41:02,300 –> 00:41:07,100
This man has absolutely no spine
or shame, no, moral Scruples,
539
00:41:07,100 –> 00:41:11,100
whatever, he’d parade more
decayed to grease up to the
540
00:41:11,100 –> 00:41:16,500
king, and he did beg for his
life from a jewess, no less.
541
00:41:17,700 –> 00:41:20,500
But he could see, couldn’t hear
the unmistakable look in the eye
542
00:41:20,500 –> 00:41:23,700
of a.
His ears evil was determined
543
00:41:23,700 –> 00:41:26,900
against him by the king in
Kingston.
544
00:41:26,900 –> 00:41:30,500
Brothers and sisters was finally
going to collect his paycheck
545
00:41:31,100 –> 00:41:36,600
along with all the bonuses sin
cannot bring life, and it’s
546
00:41:36,600 –> 00:41:39,600
there was unmoved.
And so in verse 8, as the king
547
00:41:39,600 –> 00:41:44,300
returned, his confronted by
Haman fallen on the Persian sofa
548
00:41:44,300 –> 00:41:47,300
where Easter was, then the king
returned at season.
549
00:41:47,500 –> 00:41:51,400
Right out of the palace Garden
into the place of the banquet of
550
00:41:51,400 –> 00:41:54,500
wine.
And Haman was Fallen upon the
551
00:41:54,500 –> 00:41:58,700
bed where on Easter was then
said the king, will he forced
552
00:41:58,700 –> 00:42:02,200
the queen?
Also before me in the house and
553
00:42:02,200 –> 00:42:05,400
the word and as the word went
out of the Kings mouth, they
554
00:42:05,400 –> 00:42:10,400
covered heyman’s face, you know,
I don’t think that the Kings
555
00:42:10,400 –> 00:42:13,000
suspected any impropriety from
Haman.
556
00:42:13,400 –> 00:42:17,800
The word simply means to
humiliate to humiliate sore
557
00:42:17,800 –> 00:42:23,800
subject to despise mint and this
king of all Kings knew exactly
558
00:42:24,100 –> 00:42:27,500
what that felt like.
Denis remember back in chapter 1
559
00:42:27,500 –> 00:42:33,200
and verse 17, we invest a vest.
I despise and humiliated him in
560
00:42:33,200 –> 00:42:36,500
front of all the world.
This King knew exactly what that
561
00:42:36,500 –> 00:42:38,700
felt like.
And I think that the king is
562
00:42:38,900 –> 00:42:43,400
Texting Hyman with yet another
Crime After attempting to murder
563
00:42:43,400 –> 00:42:46,700
her.
Are you going to grovel and to
564
00:42:46,700 –> 00:42:51,800
humiliate my wife as well?
And if he thought he could
565
00:42:51,800 –> 00:42:54,400
wriggle out of the previous
crime, brothers and sisters.
566
00:42:54,400 –> 00:43:01,400
Now, it was obvious that it was
all over and as if On Cue, as
567
00:43:01,400 –> 00:43:05,900
the words, went out of the Kings
mouth, And angel step forward
568
00:43:05,900 –> 00:43:12,600
and covered the face of Haman.
King sin is now finished.
569
00:43:13,200 –> 00:43:16,400
Now, apparently it was customary
for the macedonians in the
570
00:43:16,400 –> 00:43:21,400
Romans to muffle the Hibbs of
the prisoners before they
571
00:43:21,400 –> 00:43:26,600
executed them and maybe that
custom has its Origins here in
572
00:43:26,600 –> 00:43:29,500
the Persian Empire, but
certainly it’s true.
573
00:43:29,500 –> 00:43:33,700
Isn’t it that Heyman from this
moment on is never going to see
574
00:43:33,700 –> 00:43:34,800
the light?
Of day.
575
00:43:34,800 –> 00:43:39,700
Again Darkness enshrouds, the
power of sin.
576
00:43:39,800 –> 00:43:42,500
It’s all over.
As Jeremiah 13.
577
00:43:42,500 –> 00:43:47,800
Verse 16 says, give glory to
Yahweh your God before he caused
578
00:43:47,800 –> 00:43:51,800
darkness and before your feet
stumble upon the dark mountains.
579
00:43:51,900 –> 00:43:55,200
And while you look for light to
turn it into the shadow of death
580
00:43:55,400 –> 00:44:00,700
and make it gross Darkness,
Jeremiah 13 and verse 16.
581
00:44:01,000 –> 00:44:04,100
And no sooner had Heyman.
Had his head covered.
582
00:44:04,200 –> 00:44:08,500
And then Pub owner comes forward
and verse 9 and offers a
583
00:44:08,500 –> 00:44:11,600
solution.
The angels have been working,
584
00:44:11,600 –> 00:44:15,400
haven’t they brothers and
sisters at perfecting this story
585
00:44:15,800 –> 00:44:20,600
for centuries and they know
exactly where Heyman needs to
586
00:44:20,600 –> 00:44:23,300
go.
No stone is left unturned,
587
00:44:23,300 –> 00:44:26,200
nothing is left to chance and
two bonuses.
588
00:44:27,100 –> 00:44:31,800
Verse 9 behold.
Also The Gallows fifty cubits
589
00:44:31,800 –> 00:44:34,100
High which Heyman has made for
more.
590
00:44:34,300 –> 00:44:38,100
Hi.
Who had spoken good for the king
591
00:44:38,200 –> 00:44:44,600
stands in the house of Haman.
The in the king said, hang him
592
00:44:44,600 –> 00:44:47,400
thereon.
And so Heyman.
593
00:44:48,300 –> 00:44:53,800
The Jews enemy is crucified on
the very tree meant for
594
00:44:53,800 –> 00:44:58,600
Mordecai.
On the very day of the
595
00:44:58,600 –> 00:45:03,000
Resurrection, the process of
destroying the power of Kingston
596
00:45:03,000 –> 00:45:07,700
is now brought to a glorious
finale and on the tree is now.
597
00:45:07,700 –> 00:45:13,000
Nailed Kingson has power
completely vanquished by the
598
00:45:13,000 –> 00:45:16,900
power of a perfect life.
The life of a man who never
599
00:45:16,900 –> 00:45:22,500
bowed to sin once, and there was
no way more appropriate brothers
600
00:45:22,500 –> 00:45:24,900
and sisters.
No way more ironic.
601
00:45:25,400 –> 00:45:27,100
No way more.
Music.
602
00:45:28,100 –> 00:45:31,000
Then that Haman be hanged on
that tree.
603
00:45:32,100 –> 00:45:35,000
And the King said, hang him
thereon.
604
00:45:35,600 –> 00:45:38,900
Look at this, the poetic justice
of God.
605
00:45:39,400 –> 00:45:43,800
Three references from the Psalms
Psalm 9 and verse 16.
606
00:45:43,900 –> 00:45:48,900
Yahweh is known by the Judgment,
which he executed the wicked is
607
00:45:48,900 –> 00:45:51,500
sneered in the work of his own
hands.
608
00:45:52,700 –> 00:45:56,100
Sam teen and verse to the
wicked, and his pride, doth
609
00:45:56,100 –> 00:45:59,600
persecute the poor.
Lick them be taken in the
610
00:45:59,600 –> 00:46:01,800
devices which they have
imagined.
611
00:46:03,200 –> 00:46:08,500
Psalm 141 verse 10, let the
wicked full into their own Nets,
612
00:46:09,100 –> 00:46:14,700
whilst that I with all Escape,
And Taemin was going to be
613
00:46:14,700 –> 00:46:19,500
sneered in the work of his own
hands taken in his own device
614
00:46:19,800 –> 00:46:23,800
and fall into his own net and as
heyman’s swung in the breeze,
615
00:46:23,800 –> 00:46:28,400
brothers and sisters, never was
it more true that the wicked was
616
00:46:28,400 –> 00:46:30,700
taken.
In the very pit sportrack that
617
00:46:30,900 –> 00:46:40,000
they had dug for the righteous.
And so we read in verse 13, they
618
00:46:40,000 –> 00:46:43,500
hang Taemin on The Gallows that
he had prepared for Mordecai.
619
00:46:44,100 –> 00:46:47,500
Then was the king’s Roth
pacified.
620
00:46:48,900 –> 00:46:50,900
Three references.
Not from the Psalms.
621
00:46:50,900 –> 00:46:55,400
But from the Proverbs about the
king’s wrath Proverbs 16 and
622
00:46:55,400 –> 00:47:01,100
verse 14, The Wrath of a king is
as messengers of death, but a
623
00:47:01,100 –> 00:47:05,200
wise man will pacify it that
certainly was not payment.
624
00:47:06,400 –> 00:47:11,500
Proverbs 19 verse 12, the king’s
wrath is as the Roaring of a
625
00:47:11,500 –> 00:47:17,100
lion.
Proverbs 20 and verse to, the
626
00:47:17,100 –> 00:47:21,300
fear of a king is, there’s the
Roaring of a lion who so
627
00:47:21,300 –> 00:47:25,000
provoked him to anger sinneth
against his own soul.
628
00:47:25,700 –> 00:47:29,500
And so, brothers and sisters.
After a life of slimy ladder,
629
00:47:29,500 –> 00:47:34,500
climbing, after a brief period
of Glorious Authority and what
630
00:47:34,500 –> 00:47:39,200
seemed like absolute dominion
over all the subjects of a has
631
00:47:39,200 –> 00:47:43,900
you heiresses round after a
short time, when sins seems to
632
00:47:43,900 –> 00:47:48,900
almost Reign supreme Haman, the
agagite.
633
00:47:50,500 –> 00:47:55,400
The diable loss.
The Jews and the Kings enemy
634
00:47:56,000 –> 00:48:00,900
proved entirely dispensable.
Haman.
635
00:48:01,000 –> 00:48:05,000
The son of hammer death, there
was no more.
636
00:48:06,400 –> 00:48:08,700
And I want to finish this
morning buttons.
637
00:48:08,700 –> 00:48:12,200
This is by just looking at the
first couple of verses of
638
00:48:12,200 –> 00:48:16,900
chapter 8, because they really
conclude our story today.
639
00:48:17,700 –> 00:48:20,200
You know, something that really
struck me is, I finished the
640
00:48:20,200 –> 00:48:25,100
study was the fact that from
chapter 3 verse 12 through 22
641
00:48:25,100 –> 00:48:29,500
chapter 8 verse through the very
heart, and soul of this book or
642
00:48:29,500 –> 00:48:33,900
takes place on just four days.
Did you know that?
643
00:48:34,600 –> 00:48:38,200
The heart and soul of this book
just takes four days.
644
00:48:38,700 –> 00:48:43,000
The first couple of chapters
talk about a few years in time.
645
00:48:44,200 –> 00:48:47,900
Then set this 328 takes just
four days and then there’s a
646
00:48:47,908 –> 00:48:52,900
couple of chapters to finish.
But those four days are the most
647
00:48:53,300 –> 00:48:58,000
important for days in the
history of the world, the four
648
00:48:58,000 –> 00:49:03,800
days that surround the death,
the burial, and the resurrection
649
00:49:03,800 –> 00:49:09,400
of our Lord Jesus Christ.
And so we find in this drama
650
00:49:09,400 –> 00:49:16,000
that in chapter 8 and verse 1.
We’re told on that day, we’re
651
00:49:16,000 –> 00:49:20,700
still on the same day as check.
This even did the king ahaz you
652
00:49:20,700 –> 00:49:23,300
weirdest.
Give the house of Haman the
653
00:49:23,300 –> 00:49:26,200
juice in a me.
And to Esther the queen, it’s
654
00:49:26,200 –> 00:49:29,700
the same day.
The same day that started early
655
00:49:29,700 –> 00:49:31,300
in the morning.
With the King opening.
656
00:49:31,300 –> 00:49:33,800
The history books?
It’s saw Mordecai.
657
00:49:33,800 –> 00:49:37,000
Oh, raised from the dead.
Paraded through the city is the
658
00:49:37,000 –> 00:49:39,100
rip.
Imitation of God at saw the
659
00:49:39,100 –> 00:49:41,900
complete destruction, over the
power of sin.
660
00:49:42,200 –> 00:49:46,100
And now this day of the
Resurrection is going to see
661
00:49:47,500 –> 00:49:52,100
This one says, the giving of the
House of Haman unto Esther.
662
00:49:52,500 –> 00:49:55,000
The queen, you know, brothers
sisters.
663
00:49:55,000 –> 00:49:59,500
This is marvelous, the bride of
Christ has been promised the
664
00:49:59,500 –> 00:50:03,600
world and so it was appropriate
that Easter was given all of the
665
00:50:03,600 –> 00:50:06,800
wealth of Haman and we know in
the case of Haman that that was
666
00:50:06,800 –> 00:50:10,300
not inconsiderable.
This is what it says, elsewhere
667
00:50:10,300 –> 00:50:15,300
in the Bible about what the
bride has been promised.
668
00:50:15,400 –> 00:50:19,400
We’ve been given the whole world
Brothers, This is Isaiah 61 and
669
00:50:19,400 –> 00:50:23,200
verse 6, but you shall be named
the priests of Yahweh.
670
00:50:23,500 –> 00:50:27,600
You shall eat the riches of the
Gentiles and in their Glory.
671
00:50:27,600 –> 00:50:32,300
Shall we boast yourselves?
Daniel 7 and verse 18.
672
00:50:32,400 –> 00:50:35,700
But the Saints of the most high
shall take the kingdom and
673
00:50:35,700 –> 00:50:41,800
possess the kingdom even forever
and ever And second of
674
00:50:41,800 –> 00:50:45,700
Corinthians 6 and verse 10
reading from the new English
675
00:50:45,700 –> 00:50:50,400
Bible.
In our sorrows, we have always
676
00:50:50,400 –> 00:50:54,800
cause for joy.
Pour ourselves.
677
00:50:54,900 –> 00:51:02,600
We bring wealth to many penis.
We own the world and brothers
678
00:51:02,600 –> 00:51:06,300
and sisters.
We are the bride of Christ, and
679
00:51:06,300 –> 00:51:12,200
we will be given all of the
wealth of Haman.
680
00:51:12,200 –> 00:51:15,100
We’re going to be given all the
world brothers and sisters at
681
00:51:15,100 –> 00:51:18,100
that time.
And then we have some very
682
00:51:18,500 –> 00:51:26,500
significant words in chapter 8
and verse 1 and Mordecai.
683
00:51:28,000 –> 00:51:34,000
Came before the king.
Now I said to you at the start
684
00:51:34,000 –> 00:51:36,900
of the week that all of you are
going to be astounded by the
685
00:51:36,900 –> 00:51:41,300
type and and I am about ninety
nine and a half percent.
686
00:51:41,300 –> 00:51:45,500
Sure.
That as I read those words all
687
00:51:45,500 –> 00:51:52,100
of you know exactly what that is
a type of Mordecai.
688
00:51:52,100 –> 00:51:57,000
I came before the king.
There’s no record or indication
689
00:51:57,000 –> 00:52:00,700
in the story.
That before this Mordecai has
690
00:52:00,700 –> 00:52:06,200
seen or met the king before, and
this is clearly in tight, the
691
00:52:06,200 –> 00:52:11,100
Ascension of our Lord, Jesus
Christ to the right hand of the
692
00:52:11,100 –> 00:52:15,300
father, after the complete
victory, over sin has been
693
00:52:15,300 –> 00:52:17,800
sealed by his resurrection from
the dead.
694
00:52:18,200 –> 00:52:21,000
And what a moment it was
Mordecai came.
695
00:52:21,200 –> 00:52:22,600
Will the king?
What a meeting?
696
00:52:22,800 –> 00:52:25,700
That must have been brothers and
sisters, you know, it’s hard to
697
00:52:25,700 –> 00:52:30,100
imagine, isn’t it?
Our Lord Jesus Christ being
698
00:52:30,100 –> 00:52:34,600
brought Before the Throne of God
in heaven and taking his seat at
699
00:52:34,600 –> 00:52:39,500
God’s right hand.
But, you know, brothers are so I
700
00:52:39,500 –> 00:52:41,400
think there’s an important
lesson here for us.
701
00:52:41,400 –> 00:52:46,900
Because, you know, if it is
true, as we’ve said from 1:14
702
00:52:46,900 –> 00:52:52,300
that, nobody saw the Kings face.
Then how amazing is it that
703
00:52:52,300 –> 00:52:59,200
mortar Ki is now able to come in
before the presence of the king?
704
00:53:00,100 –> 00:53:02,500
He’s not from a royal Persian
family.
705
00:53:03,100 –> 00:53:06,800
He’s not from a sneeze, not a
stately, Persian Prince back as
706
00:53:06,800 –> 00:53:12,700
it as it was back in chapter 1
verse 14, he wasn’t born into a
707
00:53:12,700 –> 00:53:16,300
royal family.
He was a Jewish captive and yet
708
00:53:16,300 –> 00:53:19,000
he came before the king and the
lesson is clear brothers and
709
00:53:19,000 –> 00:53:21,800
sisters.
It does Matter what a personal
710
00:53:21,800 –> 00:53:25,700
lineage or background is, it
doesn’t matter what our heritage
711
00:53:25,700 –> 00:53:31,000
is or who are parents, are we
can all come before the face of
712
00:53:31,000 –> 00:53:36,100
the king if we’re prepared to be
one of his Faithful Servants and
713
00:53:36,100 –> 00:53:39,200
reflect his glory and now
Mordecai.
714
00:53:39,200 –> 00:53:41,800
Oh, is revealed for who he
really is.
715
00:53:42,300 –> 00:53:47,400
Easter had told what he was unto
her.
716
00:53:48,100 –> 00:53:51,200
Since Mordecai has been Advanced
on his own merits.
717
00:53:51,200 –> 00:53:55,100
Now Easter feels able to reveal
the close relationship that
718
00:53:55,100 –> 00:54:00,600
always has been between herself
and this faithful man.
719
00:54:00,800 –> 00:54:04,400
And so from this moment on
Mordecai is going to take on the
720
00:54:04,400 –> 00:54:09,400
role of Esther’s husband.
Now that now that he’s been
721
00:54:09,400 –> 00:54:12,400
revealed and chapter 6 has the
perfect manifestation of God
722
00:54:12,400 –> 00:54:17,200
himself Mordecai right now and
type becomes the husband of the
723
00:54:17,200 –> 00:54:20,800
bride.
And we Eden 8:2, the king took
724
00:54:20,800 –> 00:54:24,000
off his ring, which he had taken
from Haman, and gave it under
725
00:54:24,000 –> 00:54:28,000
Mordecai.
And Esther, sit Mordecai over
726
00:54:28,000 –> 00:54:32,700
the house of Haman and the King.
Now, divulges, not only his
727
00:54:32,700 –> 00:54:39,200
position as husband.
But all all authority in the in
728
00:54:39,200 –> 00:54:41,900
the symbol of the Ring of the
kingdom and gives it to
729
00:54:41,900 –> 00:54:45,200
Mordecai.
We’re before Heyman had
730
00:54:45,200 –> 00:54:47,800
controlled the ring and sin had
ruled the world.
731
00:54:47,800 –> 00:54:52,600
Now the kingdoms of the Earth
have become the kingdoms of our
732
00:54:52,600 –> 00:54:56,000
Lord Jesus Christ.
And he has control over them,
733
00:54:56,000 –> 00:55:01,400
not openly of course.
But in Heaven above, he rules in
734
00:55:01,400 –> 00:55:05,300
the kingdoms of men, first Peter
3 verse 22.
735
00:55:05,700 –> 00:55:10,000
Jesus Christ is gone to heaven
and is on the right hand of God,
736
00:55:10,000 –> 00:55:15,800
angels authorities and Powers,
being made subject unto him and
737
00:55:15,800 –> 00:55:19,100
Mordecai touched perfectly.
Our Lord, Jesus Christ.
738
00:55:19,100 –> 00:55:23,000
Coming before the king in
heaven, he had been trustworthy
739
00:55:23,000 –> 00:55:26,100
over a few things and now he is
made.
740
00:55:27,100 –> 00:55:31,600
Lord, over many things.
You know, I want to take just a
741
00:55:31,600 –> 00:55:35,500
couple of minutes to show you,
because we’ve kind of, if you
742
00:55:35,500 –> 00:55:39,200
like finish the type of the
three day fast of Mordecai, just
743
00:55:39,200 –> 00:55:43,600
show you by way of of diagram,
on the screen, how this three
744
00:55:43,600 –> 00:55:46,600
day, fast works because I think
it’s quite impressive.
745
00:55:47,800 –> 00:55:50,500
So at the top of the screen, we
have the days of Abraham’s
746
00:55:50,500 –> 00:55:53,400
starting from the 13th and we’re
going to take it through to the
747
00:55:53,400 –> 00:55:58,100
18th and just so we’re clear.
The symbol that looks like a
748
00:55:58,100 –> 00:56:01,600
moon stands for night in the
That looks like a sun stands for
749
00:56:01,600 –> 00:56:05,300
day. 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. so, here
we go.
750
00:56:06,300 –> 00:56:10,800
We started out on the 13th day
of the first month with haman’s
751
00:56:10,800 –> 00:56:16,400
decree, the 13th of a bib.
Later that day XU Xin was
752
00:56:16,400 –> 00:56:22,700
perplexed. 3:15.
Early the next morning Mordecai
753
00:56:22,700 –> 00:56:30,100
has found 9:00 in the morning.
On the cross crying with a loud
754
00:56:30,100 –> 00:56:32,300
voice outside, the Kings gate
member.
755
00:56:32,300 –> 00:56:34,900
We saw that.
That’s our Lord Jesus Christ
756
00:56:35,200 –> 00:56:39,400
crucified on the cross, but he
would not receive the murmur.
757
00:56:39,800 –> 00:56:42,900
He would not receive the
clothes, which is the sin.
758
00:56:42,900 –> 00:56:46,900
So he’s there 9:00 in the
morning, on the 14th, day of a,
759
00:56:46,900 –> 00:56:53,600
babe in the type Morning,
distressed on the cross, all the
760
00:56:53,600 –> 00:56:55,500
weight of the world on his
shoulders.
761
00:56:56,500 –> 00:57:02,800
And then later that day starting
at 3:00 when when our Lord Jesus
762
00:57:02,800 –> 00:57:09,300
Christ was buried in the Tomb,
sometime between 3:00 and 6:00
763
00:57:09,300 –> 00:57:14,000
that night on the 14th day of a
bib Mordecai starts, his
764
00:57:14,000 –> 00:57:18,700
three-day fast.
Well, Easter comes in before the
765
00:57:18,700 –> 00:57:24,600
king and 5:1 on the third day,
that’s going to be the 16th of a
766
00:57:24,600 –> 00:57:29,600
boob Easter’s.
First banquet 5:6. 26-28 is the
767
00:57:29,600 –> 00:57:33,500
same day in you, remember that,
while that banquet takes place
768
00:57:33,500 –> 00:57:37,700
Mordecai was still did because
it’s Heyman comes out and goes
769
00:57:37,700 –> 00:57:40,700
past Mordecai.
He didn’t even move he didn’t
770
00:57:40,700 –> 00:57:43,800
put your muscle because he’s
still did and type.
771
00:57:44,900 –> 00:57:49,600
The king can’t sleep 6:1.
We now getting to the night of
772
00:57:49,600 –> 00:57:56,600
the 17th, it’s early morning.
The king knows that in just a
773
00:57:56,607 –> 00:57:59,400
few hours.
Our Lord Jesus Christ is going
774
00:57:59,400 –> 00:58:03,300
to be raised from the dead and
so if we move more to chaos
775
00:58:03,300 –> 00:58:07,100
three day fast up to the top and
have a look at the finish of our
776
00:58:07,100 –> 00:58:10,300
story, we find that 5:00 in the
morning.
777
00:58:11,100 –> 00:58:14,600
In 6:11.
On the 17th day of a verb
778
00:58:14,900 –> 00:58:17,000
morning.
Ki is resurrected from
779
00:58:17,000 –> 00:58:21,400
obscurity, and death, and
paraded before all the world, as
780
00:58:21,400 –> 00:58:26,800
the representation of God is the
second banquet happens straight
781
00:58:26,800 –> 00:58:31,100
after they hasted Heyman.
While he was yet speaking to his
782
00:58:31,100 –> 00:58:35,700
wife and friends to Esther’s
second, banquet Haman is hung
783
00:58:35,700 –> 00:58:40,700
7:10 and now more Decay is sins
to me.
784
00:58:40,900 –> 00:58:45,900
The father in the heaven above
all of that happens on the 17th
785
00:58:45,900 –> 00:58:51,100
day of Ava, brothers and sisters
the Jews, call The Book of
786
00:58:51,100 –> 00:58:54,000
Esther.
The volume.
787
00:58:55,100 –> 00:58:58,700
The volume of Easter and look
what it says in Hebrews 11.
788
00:58:58,900 –> 00:59:04,500
Hebrews 10 verse 7 then said I
lo I come in the volume of the
789
00:59:04,500 –> 00:59:07,800
book it is written of me to do
thy will o God.
790
00:59:08,100 –> 00:59:11,200
And if it is true, brothers and
sisters that all the volume of
791
00:59:11,200 –> 00:59:15,700
the Old Testament, spoke of what
Christ was going to do, in
792
00:59:15,700 –> 00:59:22,000
surely, as we’ve seen, it must
speak of the volume of Easter,
793
00:59:22,000 –> 00:59:27,500
which marvelously types.
All these And so now let’s
794
00:59:27,500 –> 00:59:31,900
conclude by looking at our
lesson for today and our
795
00:59:31,900 –> 00:59:38,000
listeners, the lesson of love,
because the veil is drawn back
796
00:59:38,000 –> 00:59:42,700
on our three characters today
and we saw, didn’t we the
797
00:59:42,700 –> 00:59:46,000
intimate?
Love that a has you beerus head
798
00:59:46,000 –> 00:59:49,400
for his bride?
But deep love that he had for
799
00:59:49,400 –> 00:59:52,100
that woman.
And look what it says in just a
800
00:59:52,107 –> 00:59:57,200
couple of references about love.
I love rejoices not in iniquity,
801
00:59:57,600 –> 00:59:59,900
but rejoices in the truth that
Bears.
802
00:59:59,900 –> 01:00:07,000
All things believes all things,
hopes all things, endures all
803
01:00:07,000 –> 01:00:09,000
things.
And just when you thought that
804
01:00:09,000 –> 01:00:13,400
the situation was desperate,
Love, Never Fails.
805
01:00:14,100 –> 01:00:19,200
First, John 4 verse 18 to 19 and
you can imagine Easter saying
806
01:00:19,200 –> 01:00:24,400
these words after the Since
there is no fear in love but
807
01:00:24,400 –> 01:00:29,700
perfect, love casteth out fear.
He that feareth is not made
808
01:00:29,700 –> 01:00:33,200
perfect in love.
We love him because he first
809
01:00:33,500 –> 01:00:35,800
loved us, you know, brothers and
sisters.
810
01:00:35,800 –> 01:00:39,800
We talked a lot about the love
that God has for us but I want
811
01:00:39,800 –> 01:00:42,700
to think, as we finished this
morning about the love that we
812
01:00:42,700 –> 01:00:47,100
should have for our King.
Because we have to love him.
813
01:00:48,700 –> 01:00:53,500
We can’t love him without
knowing him and now is the time
814
01:00:53,700 –> 01:00:58,500
for us to get to know our King
because when he comes brothers
815
01:00:58,500 –> 01:01:01,500
and sisters in, he appears at
the other end of the Temple.
816
01:01:03,000 –> 01:01:07,500
Maybe he’ll recognize us.
But we certainly want to
817
01:01:07,500 –> 01:01:10,900
recognize him and we’re not ever
going to do that.
818
01:01:11,300 –> 01:01:15,500
Unless we have built up in our
minds, a picture of him and of
819
01:01:15,500 –> 01:01:22,000
his love.
Because God is love beloved.
820
01:01:22,300 –> 01:01:26,200
Let us love one.
Another for love is of God and
821
01:01:26,300 –> 01:01:31,500
every one that loveth is born of
God and knoweth, God, he that
822
01:01:31,500 –> 01:01:37,000
loveth, not knoweth, not God for
our God, finally, brothers and
823
01:01:37,000 –> 01:01:42,500
sisters.
At the end of the story is Love.
